Still the best trench coat we currently have.
All the other methods are wearing Borat strings and slinging poop at each other.
- Comment on ICE Taps into Nationwide AI-Enabled Camera Network, Data Shows 4 days ago:
No it is a logical fallacy.
That some people don’t understand its meaning doesn’t take this away.

Is China not in Asia then?
- Comment on King Charles III arrives in Canada to underscore its sovereignty after Trump annexation threats 5 days ago:
Putin is a bigger leach on the economy, human lives, and the world itself.
Monarchs > dictators
- Comment on King Charles III arrives in Canada to underscore its sovereignty after Trump annexation threats 5 days ago:
Still less than what they generate from tourism alone for existing.
- Comment on King Charles III arrives in Canada to underscore its sovereignty after Trump annexation threats 5 days ago:
I don’t support monarchs.
But the UK monarch actually brings in more profit for the country through tourism than it costs to have the monarch.
And if they ever use their theoretical power, there will be an uprising and we will set their palace on fire.
- Comment on King Charles III arrives in Canada to underscore its sovereignty after Trump annexation threats 5 days ago:
Where did they state they have claim over another country?
They are doing in fact the opposite.
- Comment on King Charles III arrives in Canada to underscore its sovereignty after Trump annexation threats 5 days ago:
The previous owner is just coming over to state that they don’t own it anymore.
Nothing wrong about that.
- Comment on Misunderstood the assignment… 5 days ago:
Because it takes away from the joke since it confuses the reader as to why the protagonist is a die. When it adds nothing to it.
- Comment on German court sends Volkswagen execs to prison over Dieselgate scandal 5 days ago:
Death penalties should never be used since you can never be 100% sure of a crime. Otherwise you will get innocents executed.
Even CEOs can be scapegoats.
- Comment on German court sends Volkswagen execs to prison over Dieselgate scandal 5 days ago:
The US really like their prisoners, don’t they.
They demand extraditing of prisoners from other countries, but won’t ever extradite to other countries themselves.
- Comment on German court sends Volkswagen execs to prison over Dieselgate scandal 5 days ago:
The real world consequences of keeping fossil fuel cars is much higher than banning all of them.
- Comment on ‘Alexa, what do you know about us?’ What I discovered when I asked Amazon to tell me everything my family’s smart speaker had heard 5 days ago:
The worst ones know they are being spied on, but say things like they don’t mind being spied on because “I have nothing to hide anyway”
- Comment on ‘Alexa, what do you know about us?’ What I discovered when I asked Amazon to tell me everything my family’s smart speaker had heard 5 days ago:
Also says nothing about the validity of those emails.
Sure they can have my friend börg.börginson@notyourbusiness.com
- Comment on ‘Alexa, what do you know about us?’ What I discovered when I asked Amazon to tell me everything my family’s smart speaker had heard 5 days ago:
Even if ZigBee became the most evil corporation in existence.
They still wouldn’t be able to update their devices when they aren’t connected to the internet.
- Comment on Woodside boss says young people ‘ideological’ on fossil fuels while ‘happily ordering from Temu’ 5 days ago:
And buy the stuff that they order directly from the same stores Temu sends from but with markup.
- Comment on AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid 5 days ago:
So what you are saying is that you are incapable of thinking in hypotheticals?
- Comment on AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid 5 days ago:
You mean exactly like what they said TV and computers would do?
Color me skeptical.
- Comment on What should be known before launching a voice cloning application/service? 5 days ago:
That you should require full information who your users are using something like a bank platform as an identity check, or be prepared to be sued when they use it anonymously.

- Comment on VCs are starting to partner with private equity to buy up call centers, accounting firms and other "mature companies" to replace their operations with AI 6 days ago:
I’m mad they existed in the first place
- Comment on Low quality cropping will officially launch on Lemmy in 2025 1 week ago:
Can’t they go Middle Earth on them and just create more doors?
- Comment on Low quality cropping will officially launch on Lemmy in 2025 1 week ago:
Almost mist that joke
- Comment on "You can't just have Geralt for every single game" says his voice actor, and if you think The Witcher 4 making Ciri the protagonist is "woke," then "read the damn books" 1 week ago:
For real, the battle mechanics are just so clunky and slow. And the magic is just 5 times the same spell but with different colors.
Not to mention that you are shoehorned into a character that you don’t get to decide, and the NPCs laugh at you if you choose dialogue options that don’t fit this characters mold.
Rather play an actual RPG than this action adventure akin to Tomb Raider.
- Comment on Duolingo CEO says AI is a better teacher than humans—but schools will exist ‘because you still need childcare’ 1 week ago:
Current LLMs aren’t better teachers.
They might be in the future. But definitely not now.
- Comment on Grieve with me 1 week ago:
I wouldn’t recommend using that toothpick while drunk, my dude.
- Comment on Grieve with me 1 week ago:
The cable is designed to break before the port.
- Comment on Grieve with me 1 week ago:
Toothpick too thick, either sharpen it or use some plastic from somewhere.
- Comment on Grieve with me 1 week ago:
As long as the parts are available.
Haven’t needed them myself, but I’ve heard stories where they couldn’t get a replacement part because it was sold out. Which kind of defeats the purpose.
Still, it is such a robust phone.
- Comment on Grieve with me 1 week ago:
How is the OS unusable when you can always install a custom rom?
Fairphone even encourages it.
